When Rugby League and Rugby Union fans were asked: 'Would you watch the Australian Kangaroos play the New Zealand All Blacks?' The unanimous reply was, 'Absolutely!'

When Rugby League and Rugby Union fans were asked: 'Would you watch the Australian Kangaroos play the New Zealand All Blacks?' The unanimous reply was, 'Absolutely!' On the world stage, Australia dominates the League version of Rugby while in Union it is New Zealand. Undoubtedly, the best rugby players in Australia play League but, elsewhere, who has heard the names, Billy Slater, Greg Inglis or Jonathan Thurston? When Mark Campbell, a self-confessed Rugby League 'tragic', saw South Africa win the 1995 Rugby Union World Cup, it inspired him to ask: 'How can the Springboks be the best Rugby team in the world when they have not beaten the Australian Kangaroos?' In response, he drafted a proposal to end the war and unify the two codes under the one banner - the Unified Sport of Rugby.In his book, The Rugby Abstract, Mark examines the history of Rugby, shares his personal experience with both codes, outlines the benefits and challenges of creating a united sport, and discusses the potential rules in detail. It is a carefully considered attempt to reconcile these two popular sports on a level playing field.

Über den Autor
Mark Campbell was born in Sydney, New South Wales. He grew up in a family of Rugby League fans and the game and the South Sydney Rabbitohs became his obsession, his passion, and his religion. Later in life, Mark developed a respect for the game of Rugby Union but League has remained his first love. Mark would like to see the end of the 'code war' between the two sports. Most importantly, he hopes the ideas that he has put forward in this book will resonate with those people with the vision, imagination and the capacity to see the benefits associated with creating one unified form of rugby.
